"It was nothing less than a miracle - the transformation of Canada's army at the beginning of the Second World War into a well-oiled fighting machine that became a significant factor in the Allied victory. But the miracle didn't just happen by itself. It was largely the result of the leadership of Canada's top military commanders. Some were great men, others were sadly flawed characters. Here, in one volume, are the stories of Canada's most important military leaders." Light wrinkling at top/bottom of spine. Dust jacket has light wrinkling at top/bottom od spine and flap-folds.
